在得克萨斯州最近爆发了造成两名未接种疫苗儿童死亡的疫情之后,卫生与人类服务秘书罗伯特·肯尼迪(Robert F. Kennedy Jr.)认可MMR疫苗为“防止麻疹传播的最有效途径”。 Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. endorsed the MMR vaccine as the "most effective way to prevent the spread" of measles, following a recent outbreak in Texas that killed two unvaccinated children. 这种支持激怒了反疫苗活动家,与肯尼迪过去的怀疑主义以及他以前作为反疫苗非营利组织主席的角色相矛盾。 This endorsement has angered anti-vaccine activists, contradicting Kennedy’s past skepticism and his former role as chairman of an anti-vaccine non-profit. 他指示疾病防治中心向药房和诊所提供所需的MMR疫苗。 He instructed the CDC to supply pharmacies and clinics with needed MMR vaccines.
